#2 SAY IT WELL.
Once you’ve got something, now you can’t mumble. If you have something good to say, you can’t mumble. Right? It’s gotta be clear, or no matter how good the message is, that you gotta delivered, how good the instructions or ideas, no matter how they are, if you don’t deliver them well, now the power is lost, the opportunity is lost.

Here is that will help you to ‘say it well’ :

One, SINCERITY. If the message is delivered with sincerity, see that makes us the different. If the speaker is sincere, if the writer is sincere, if the father is sincere, if the mother is sincere, see that’s captivating for the other. If the friend is sincere, even covering a delicate subject for us, of some changes we probably should make. If they’re sincere, see we will give them room, perhaps to get in our case, if we know they’re sincere, not just to criticize for criticizing sake. If you’re sincerity, I’m telling you that wins that day.

Hopefully like this, we can hear and see someone sincerely willing to speak or write, and someone sincerely willing to listen or read. Sincerity is not a test of truth. In you’re studying and evaluating everything, just make sure you have that in the back of your mind. We must not make a mistake of saying, “He must be right, he’s so sincere.” See that maybe a mistake. Why is that?? Here is why, “It possible to be sincerely wrong.” Here’s the only test of truth : Truth - Truth is the only test of truth, not sincerity. We hope someone will be both truth and all sincere. But we don’t mistake sincerity for truth.

Two, REPETITION.
To get better at something, you just have to go DO IT, go DO IT! Accept every opportunity to make a little make talk if that’s gonna be your business, get better at talking to others, come up

of more illustrations, come up of more ideas, read an extra book how to communicate with other people. So you have something a little better to say, and just practice it, get good at it, get better at it.

Three, BREVITY.
Don’t take too long to say if you can say it in shorter sentences in shorter time. One way to learn brevity is to talk to kids. You talk to kids for 30 seconds and they, “How long is this gonna take?” It’s already to long, right? 30 seconds? I mean, they got games to play and things to do, they can’t hang around for, you know, and hour this course. So talk to kids is help you to make you more brief, powerful but brief, well said and, you know, more brief.

The story teller tell us Jesus wondered around the country side and putting His twelve together that was gonna start these whole new movement, and every once in a while you would say, “YOU, FOLLOW ME.” See that’s short. That no hour presentation with the fancy light and you know, just that short sentence. Why could He be so brief and so short with that simple appeal. Probably for He was, not just for what He said for who He was. There’s something about Him when he said that. Probably His reputation, His manner, probably on how He said it, irresistible. Wow!

So here’s what powerful and you can talk less and even be more effective in this personal development area :

“The stronger you become and the wiser you become, the more caring you become, it shows on your language in your manner, the texture of your communication changes and reach it where it couldn’t reach before, it strike the heart where it didn’t strike before.

That’s the key. Read More...

Good communication [part 1]

Labels: Communication 1 comments

Here is the first step to achieve good communication

#1 HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY
That’s step number one, it’s very obvious. To have something good to say, try to recall, remember, and take notes, keep journal or whatever of your experiences because as you live your life you’re gonna have something good to say.

One, from your failures and Two from your successes. You’re gonna have something better you say from the mistakes you’ve made and how you corrected it and bailed your self out. In sometimes instead just registering it in your head, why not committed to paper, so it is get logged, recorded, and someday you can use it, for the future, maybe.

The key to speaking well, the key excellent communication is PREPARATION. Actually all of our life is preparing. This year preparing for the next, those junior high school preparing to senior high school, then to the college, college to university preparing to career. A career to earn money then preparing to make an investments to keep you safe and secure, build the financial wall around your family, nothing can get through. Always preparing for those steps and stages in our life, that’s part of the game of life. For human it seem like to take longer to prepare.

So preparation, getting ready, sometimes seem so laborious. After the grade one, now you gotta for to grade two, after grade two, then grade three, will it never end? C’mon, one more grade, grade four and then five.. Wow, seems it like take us forever to finally get ready, you know to design a life, and get married, and have a family and career, fortune and future. But it takes preparation.

Now to communicate well, here’s some good words to prepare for communication :

First : INTEREST. Just keep your interest alive in people, and places. If you develop the interest in all of that, when it’s right side up and when it’s up side down. Take an interest in politics of the day, and the speeches and all that’s happening, that’s gives you good stuff to debate and decide, where do you stand on the major issues, not only the political issues, but the major life issues. Be that kind and interest in LIFE and PEOPLE. That’s the whole study. Life study life, in all of it’s twisted and terms, study people and all of their variety.
Last I heard these statement. “In being an enterprise that where you have to employed people, get people to work with you, that’s the challenge. Different ages, opinions, personality, temperaments.

One of the skill to get big money : GETTING PEOPLE TO WORK TOGETHER. See they all different and the whole variety. How do you get them all to work together? Well, IT’S NOT EASY. It’s a challenge, organizing, getting people to work together, but the pay and the PAY CHECK? Unbelievable ! Now when you’re working with independent people, then it’s really is challenging. IT IS LIKE HERDING CATS.

Have you try that? Herding sheep is easy, they all quickly get going to same direction, very quickly. Cats? NO WAY!!

If you got eight cats, how many direction are they going. EIGHT DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. But if you can master herding cats (I’m still learning this stuff), the paycheck like you can not believe. Wow. There is a surprise a day, waiting for you working with people. And some people are, some are not. But there’s only a few.

To whom in sales actually I’ve heard this : “There is only nine or ten real nasty, miserable, horrible people in the world!” THEY MOVE AROUND A LOT ! HeHe. And you’re labile to get one once in a while. But when you do, you just say, “Hey there’s only nine more like you, I can handle that the rest of my life.” That’s really good. And then sometime you got try to really wit and little humor, that’s helps.

Recently I read this example of conversation.
A : “I heard some people die using to that product”
B : “Not that many.” Now with the silly comment that he make, so give him a silly answer. You can’t give a honest answer to a silly comment.
B (continued) : “I understand as long as the death surround one hundred a month, they get to keep selling the product. If the number go over the hundred, they’ve to come in for a review." Now that’s a silly nonsense, but he deserve it. Use a little humor. Somebody says, “This is not gonna work for me.”
Say, “It’s not design to work to some people. I don’t know, what do I know?? Too bad that’s you. Huh.. you know, what can I say, I’m not a genius to figure this stuff out.”

The best wit in the world is Winston Churcil, right? Lady Astur and the English parlement, exasperate in one day with Winston Churcil
She said, “Winston, if you’re my husband, I’ll put poison in your coffee.
Winston said, “Lady Astur, if you’re my wife, I WILL DRINK IT !!

Whatever it takes, don’t let anybody put you down. Be the student of life and people and all of the varieties, what’s happening in the world. It’s an interesting place to live. And while you’re here, learn all you can, study all you can. The varieties, you know some people are easy, some are miserable, just learn how to handle of that.

Second : Fascination.
It goes the steps beyond just interest. Be like a child, fascinated with everything.

Third : Sensitivity.Trying to understand where people are, whether coming from the positioning maybe in at the moment. Trying to understand a night visit, after days and some winter are tough, and some people are have the tough time. Be sensitive to all of that.

Fourth : Knowledge. Gather every idea you can [continued]

Communication

In these session of my writing, I’d like to write communication. Affecting other people with your language.

Here is the one of the greatest gifts all of us have : Our Language. Our ability to speak, to framework in the situation that we create images, pictures. Help someone to understand, to become educated, to see what they couldn’t see before. It’s almost God like in power. The story teller tell us, “In the beginning God spoke and said, “Let there be light, and there was light.” Giving us the indication, that God’s Word can CREATE light.

THERE IS MORE THAN ONE KIND OF LIGHT.

Creating light by His own Words is the power of all of us , Creating sight, which is light in a form, helping somebody to see by using our language the best we know how.

What if somebody can’t see how they could possibly be successful and you came along and told them your story, choosing the best word you possibly could and when you finished your story, they said, “Now I can see.” Before you got here, I was blind, couldn’t see. Now that you’ve shared with me by your language, your story, now I can see. Before you got here, I was in the dark. And it seem to me while you’re talking something’s dawn dawn me. "

Like the sun started coming up, and the more you talked, the further up the sun came and brighter got the images and the imagination. Helping people to see, that’s one of the greatest gifts. Words are so powerful if they’re framed right, if they sensed with sincerity. Words that created images, that express life, experiences, gifts of ideas that you got to share.

See if you can inspire with your own language, a better sense of the importance of the day, of doing the work, of getting good grades, developing yourself, becoming who you like to become, doing the disciplines now and later give you the joy. Later I know that teaching is one the greatest sense of the accomplishment in the world, helping somebody learn, take early steps in a new career, to be an entrepreneur, showing somebody the way, the gift of word, language.

Here is what old prophet said, “Words are like a lamp for your feet, so you can where to walk.” That the gift. And then he said. “Words also like a light for your pathway, so you can see where to go.” If somebody with gift of language and words can help to walk you where you should walk, and then show you a pathway to go, they you do immeasureable service.
Who could calculate the value, and the worth of that kind of exercise, showing somebody to steps to take, and the way to go that would be helpful, whether it’s a way to good health, better relationship, way to an entrepreneur, a refinement of career, doesn’t matter what it is. If we know the steps, and somebody reveals us the way, see they do us by their own languge, some of the greatest gifts we’ve ever enjoyed. Word and languages. Later I write about steps to “Good Communication.” (I learn it recently). So stay tune. Read More...
